In possible signal to Iran, Israel sends subs through Suez CanalAfter a long hiatus, the Israeli Navy has returned to sailing through the Suez Canal, recently sending one of its advanced Dolphin-class submarines through the waterway to participate in naval maneuvers off the Eilat coast in the Red Sea. The significance of the move was debatable, but it could be interpreted as a message to Iran and a demonstration of strengthening ties between Egypt and Israel.
In the event of a conflict with Iran, and if Israel decided to involve its three Dolphin-class submarines - which according to foreign reports can fire nuclear-tipped cruise missiles and serve as a second-strike platform - the quickest route would be to send them through the Suez Canal. www.jpost.com/servlet/Satellite?cid=1246443708481&pagename=JPost%2FJPArticle%2FShowFull

I am not sure what other choice Israel has but to prepare for war, albeit short and devastating. They are having to go it alone because of the gutless wonders in Washington.

Saudis Give Nod to Israeli Raid on Iran It looks like it is going to happen sooner than later.... The head of Mossad, Israel’s overseas intelligence service, has assured Benjamin Netanyahu, its prime minister, that Saudi Arabia would turn a blind eye to Israeli jets flying over the kingdom during any future raid on Iran’s nuclear sites. “The Saudis have tacitly agreed to the Israeli air force flying through their airspace on a mission which is supposed to be in the common interests of both Israel and Saudi Arabia,” a diplomatic source said last week. It is not if, but a matter of time...when is the question. I have been assured by my sources....soon. A follow up to come shortly. ADMIN
